I've long been skeptical of FADEC systems that decide that an engine should go to idle, or shut down absent pilot input. In many cases (eg uncommanded reverser deployment), it's easy to see the logic, but I've always thought that it's best to have some sort of override built in, just in case of corrupt data.
